I really don't care about the flight/lounges while traveling but I think I might be in a minority on this board in regards to this.

I am more interested in the following:

An insight into the culture.

A unique experience that Vanilla tourists either don't know about or steer away from.

A helpful clue to making the most of an experience you had, i.e. take the xyz train at this time because it will maximize your time there OR buy your tickets here as it will save this much money OR mentioning an easier way to do something.

A bit of humor.

Unique, authentic dining. I'm really not interested that a Taco Bell is open in Mexico.

There have been some trips where I take brief notes about almost everything I'm doing and then there are trips where I don't feel like it and thus don't. Most of all, just make sure you are enjoying yourself.

Have fun,

Willie
